Give Me Pachinko AND Give Me Death! (w/Ayana Wyse)

Japan By River Cruise - Podcast autorstwa Bobby Judo and Ollie Horn

On this week's episode, "Black Creatives Japan" founder and Osaka-based river photographer Ayana Wyse joins the boys to discuss the ritualized Japanese social etiquette that has developed under social distancing (ie placing a customers loose change into a ceremonial tray) and the kinds of social pressures applied to those who breach said etiquette (ie punching them in their ceremonial face), as well as how Prime Minister Abe continues to flub his way through his two-mask debacle. If he ever gets so embarrassed that he can't show his face in public, I know where he can pick up a pair of great quality face coverings, for just ¥3,300! Plus Ollie recommends a river cruise that will discourage you from starting a podcast for all the right reasons (not because YOU'RE our competition but because WE are all objectively awful), and Bobby looks into river cruise adjacent shops during the lockdown and what they're doing with a surplus of cone-shaped hats.
